A rebellious minister forced me to be a foolish king

If someone hadn't come to invite Xiao Tong to say that the old lady had been waiting for a long time, Yuan Wuyou would have to stand at the door to watch the excitement.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I followed a garden in the south of the Yangtze River. The rockery and lake rocks led into the small bridge and flowing water, and the corridor pavilion passed through the lotus pond. Outside the main hall, there was a century-old sycamore tree as thick as several people hugged, but half of it was burnt bald. , Only a few twigs struggled out of the scorched and hideous branches.

It really deserves to be the house of the Xiao family in the Southern Dynasty. The plaques on the door are all authentic calligraphy works, and there are many poems and paintings by famous masters hanging in the house.

In the main hall, two square tea tables face each other, where guests and hosts are seated separately.

Xiao Tong said that Mrs. Cui, who was holding a white skirt and stuck to the main seat, sat down on the embroidered pier with her drooping hands, and Cui Wei sat beside the old lady unceremoniously.

So he pushed his wife to the opposite table.In other words, it is difficult for Yan Tinglei not to feel aggrieved, but Aunt Zheng, who is at the same table with her, has nothing to do with her, and Yuan Wuyou is casually looking at the furnishings in the house.

Mrs. Cui is about 50 to [-] years old, she still has few gray hairs and few wrinkles on her face, she is obviously used to being pampered, but she always has a slanted eye, and she looks fierce at first glance, so it is not easy to get along with her.

Sure enough, she didn't care about her daughter-in-law in the first sentence, but ridiculed this Zheng's daughter, how can she be so petty as if she has never seen the world?
Yuan Wuyou raised his fingers and pursed the few strands of hair hanging from his eyebrows behind his ears, raised his eyelashes slantly, and saw Xiao Tongyan who was opposite him doing the same, so he quickly withdrew his hands, and said calmly and calmly:
"The owner of this house should like to play the guqin, right? The sinking xylophone table is embedded in the floor, and there is a qin stove under the table. There are many accessories such as Qin Zhen, wild goose feet, Qin emblem and qin tassels on the wall, but there is one in the room. The Guqin is gone, is the Cui family afraid of seeing things and thinking about others?"

Who would believe that he was guilty of occupying the house of his daughter-in-law who passed away before entering the family?

Mrs. Cui and her son looked at each other, as if they were discussing how to prevaricate, while Mrs. Cui's side, Xiao Tongyan, who had come back from the dead, didn't care at all. He just tilted his head past his mother-in-law, looked at Cui Wei with a smile, and said coquettishly:

"Wei Lang, what about the sycamore wood qin you made for me? Hasn't it been finished for three years?"

Cui Wei's face froze visible to the naked eye, his eyes were astonished,
"What Jiaowei Qin? If Tong Niang wants one, I'll split the wooden Qin tomorrow."

Xiao Tongyan blinked his round pupils, showing annoyance,
"Is there nothing like this? How do I remember that before the Nanchen rebels came to the border, you were halfway through, and you only had to smoke the burnt tail."

Yuan Wuyou didn't have time to listen to the two of them arguing, she didn't have breakfast when she came, but now she saw that the tea served on the table was exquisite, sweet and fragrant, it was delicious at first glance, she had already taken the pastry and ate the tea.

And the daughter-in-law of the Cui family was silently pouring tea.

Cui Wei saw that no one was paying attention to this end, so he sneered at her and said,

"You really lost your memory. At that time, the situation was critical. I often stayed overnight in Wengcheng. How could I have time to make pianos?"

At this moment, Mrs. Cui suddenly raised her sleeves and scolded angrily:
"Yan Tinglei, are you educated? How can you compare yourself to Tong Niang with such a vulgar behavior? You see, the two of them are harmonious. When he wanted to marry you, a cheap guy, I didn't agree with it, so it's not considered three." The sixth matchmaker proves that the matchmaker is marrying, and now that the rightful owner has been lost and recovered, why don’t you ask yourself to come down and make room for Tongniang?"

The tea favorite, Jin Chan, was knocked over by the purple sand pot that was thrown down severely. Yan Shi, the main daughter-in-law of the Cui family, stroked her sleeves, squinted at the mother-in-law sitting above, and said neither humble nor overbearing:
"At the beginning, your family said that they were short of money and couldn't give the dowry, so I brought my dowry and didn't ask for a penny from your family. My understanding has become a bargain from your mouth? Originally, I just wanted to return the marriage letter Gengtie and reconcile with Cui Wei. Right now I want to see, today I am Lan Yinxu Guo, will Xiao Shi follow in my footsteps in the future? Tsk tsk tsk... I looked at the peacock picture on the wall, and I predicted Xiao Tongyan's future. "

Yuan Wuyou wouldn't have noticed that if he hadn't said anything and listened to Lei's reminder, there was a picture of peacocks flying behind Mrs. Cui, with one white and one green flowers clustered together.

Xiao Tongyan just got up with a frown, and turned to look at the paintings on the wall. Mrs. Cui took a sip of tea and hissed:

"You have to cook tea slowly. I used to drink tea cooked by Tong Niang before, and the heat is the best. Tong Niang, come and cook tea for Niang."

In just two sentences, it revealed what kind of life Xiao Tongyan lived at the beginning. He was so familiar with the command before he got married. , Your Excellency thinks it’s too late.”

Xiao Tongyan was taking his seat with his skirts in his hands, and while lowering his eyebrows, he quietly pursed away the coldness in his eyes and the sarcasm at the corners of his mouth, and calmly said:
"Now that Wei Lang has a new daughter-in-law, it's time for the bride to serve her mother-in-law. Tong Niang is already a guest."

"How can she be as clumsy as you are? She was trained three years ago, but she is a reckless woman who is more delicate than you. She can only break things, and she is not worthy of being a daughter-in-law at all."

When Yuan Wuyou heard this, he felt it was funny:

"Do you dare to marry your daughter-in-law to be a cow or a horse and a slave? I really feel sorry for Princess Jiangxia. She was spoiled and raised in Nanliang, and there are countless servants in the palace, but she is reduced to helping the poor and doing miscellaneous work for your family."

Mrs. Cui snorted, "Which woman didn't come here like this? Nanliang died a long time ago. It is her blessing that the Cui family can take her in."

Suddenly realizing that there was someone beside her, she softened her tone,
"I originally thought that Tongniang died of illness, but now that such a proper daughter-in-law is lost, our Cui family is blessed."

Seeing his wife being made things difficult by the old lady for a while, Cui Wei couldn't hold back to help her distinguish a few words, then Mrs. Cui brought out his father, saying that this is how she served the two of them, and he never dared to marry a daughter-in-law like this I forgot my mother, and now I actually protect my daughter-in-law in front of Tong Niang, is it to make my mother and Tong Niang angry?Cui Wei suddenly became a dumb quail, and no longer dared to disobey his always strong mother.

Right now, there are two daughters-in-law in front of them, and it is clear at a glance which one to choose, whether it is old love, life experience or likability.

So under the pressure of many parties, I don't know if Cui Wei is really forced to help or just in the middle of his heart, so he walked to Fa's wife with a sad face, and said in a low voice: "You go to Aunt Zheng's house for a few days, and don't disobey your mother and Tong Niang. , I will pick you up later and get back to the old good."

Although Yan Tinglei had expected it, but when he heard these words, his throat was still choked up, and then a series of sneers rolled out of his throat,
"Although I don't read much, I know that the story is about a peacock flying southeast. But you are not as sincere as Jiao Zhongqing. Do you expect King Ande to promise me a good family, or do you want to see me go to Qingchi?"

Cui Wei's face was pale, but his eyelids were red. The man looked more aggrieved and pitiful than her, and he scolded in a low voice: "What are you talking about! I will take you back."

Yan Tinglei said indifferently:
"Then you'd better hurry up. Don't wait for three or five years later. I just brought my son-in-law and my family here. Oh yes, you haven't seen your daughter since you came back, have you? Your family is not Do you think I can't bear children? If I knew you were so heartless, I shouldn't have given birth to you."
